Begin. sowing Dwarf or Bush varieties the first week in May, if the 
ground is in fit condition. For successive crops sowings may be made 
Sow thinly in drills 2 or 3 inches deep and from 18 inches to 2 feet apart. 
If the soil is rather poor, the former depth will suffice. If rich, the latter. 
Never cultivate beans while the foliage is wet or covered with dew, because 
the beanspot or anthracnose will spread very rapidly if carried on the 
clothing or hoe, with detrimental effect to the crop. Beans should be 
picked daily in order to have them tender and stringless. One pound to 
100 feet of drill, 2 bushels (120 lbs.) to the acre in drills.
